Songs of Glimmerwick Save File Location

Last verified: 2026-10-01

Save file location (Windows (Steam)): %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick

Quick answer: On PC, Songs of Glimmerwick stores your saves under %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick (full path C:\Users\<you>\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick). It is a Unity game, so saves live in AppData\\LocalLow — NOT in Documents and NOT in the Steam install folder. The folder is named after the developer, Eastshade Studios, with the save data in a 'Songs of Glimmerwick' subfolder, so you have to open the Eastshade Studios folder first. LocalLow is the easiest AppData subfolder to miss because the Run box's %APPDATA% and %LOCALAPPDATA% shortcuts both skip it; paste %USERPROFILE%\\AppData\\LocalLow into Explorer instead. Steam Cloud mirrors these files, so if a day bugs out or the game crashes, copy the folder BEFORE relaunching — otherwise a bad local state can sync up and overwrite your good cloud copy.

Songs of Glimmerwick is a Unity game from Eastshade Studios, so your saves are not in Documents or the Steam install folder — they sit in the easy-to-miss AppData\LocalLow tree, under an 'Eastshade Studios' folder. Here is the exact path, how to open it, and how to protect it from a Steam Cloud rollback.

Save file locations

Windows (Steam)
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick

Full default: C:\Users\<you>\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick . LocalLow is hidden and is NOT the same as Local or Roaming — paste %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow into the address bar, then open 'Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick'.

Alternate (check if empty)
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios

If the 'Songs of Glimmerwick' subfolder is empty right after install, launch the game and save/sleep once in-game so it writes files, then re-check. Older Eastshade titles kept a flat folder, so also glance at other subfolders under Eastshade Studios.

Steam Cloud
Steam userdata (managed by Steam)

Steam Cloud keeps a synced copy and restores it on a fresh install. It is NOT a version history — it holds only the latest synced state, so it will not save you from a corrupted save that already uploaded.

Cloud saves

Songs of Glimmerwick uses Steam Cloud. It uploads automatically on exit, so a corrupted or half-written save can overwrite your good cloud copy. Treat Steam Cloud as sync, not as a backup.

Cloud save conflict & platform recovery

The common loss is 'my day/season rolled back' after a crash or a session on a second PC — Steam Cloud synced an older or half-written save over the newer local one.

  1. Before relaunching after a crash, copy %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick somewhere outside the game folder.
  2. If the cloud rolled your save back, go offline in Steam, restore your copied folder, launch once offline so the game reads it, then reconnect so the good save uploads.
  3. When playing on two PCs, let Steam Cloud finish syncing (watch the sync pop-up) before closing the game on either machine.

FAQ

Where is the Songs of Glimmerwick save on PC?

In %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick (C:\Users\<you>\AppData\LocalLow\Eastshade Studios\Songs of Glimmerwick) — the Unity LocalLow location, named after the developer Eastshade Studios, not Documents and not the install folder.

Why can't I find the LocalLow folder?

LocalLow is hidden and the %APPDATA%/%LOCALAPPDATA% Run shortcuts skip it. Paste %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow into Explorer's address bar to jump straight there, then open the Eastshade Studios folder.

How do I back up my Songs of Glimmerwick save?

Copy the whole 'Songs of Glimmerwick' folder outside the game directory, or run the robocopy command above. Do this before verifying files or relaunching after a crash, because Steam Cloud can overwrite a good save.

Does Songs of Glimmerwick use Steam Cloud?

Yes. Saves sync automatically, so a corrupted local save can propagate to the cloud — keep a manual copy as your real backup.
